What headphones do you have and how are they connected?

I have a pair of beats by dre solos, they have a mic on the little volume thing, i also tried using my turtle beach xo sevens. Both of them do the same thing.

EDIT: They are connected to the front 3.5mm audio jack on the computer.
EDIT2: I also plugged in a pair of apple earpods that dont even have a mic and it still hears me through the speakers.

Are they plugged into the headset(green) and mic(pink) ports on your computer? If not then that's your problem. You'll need to buy a splitter if your headset doesn't have separate cables.

The 3.5 mm ports on the front arent colored, there are only two, one has a picture of a microphone and one has a picture of a pair of headphones, im plugged into the microphone because i want to use the mic on the headset.

Ok, do you have one of these? [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

That'll be what you need to use your beats as a headset/mic combo.

Do i need that to talk through the mic? I dont really need to hear and talk at the same time right now I just want the comp to use the actual mic on the headset not the speakers on the headset.

Yes, since the beats only have one 3.5 jack both audio and voice are combined and you're plugging it into the mic port. It just doesn't work like that.
